Gemstone

Story

A 20th century ring is modeled after the neoclassical styles of the late 18th century. The elements of an elongated oval shape with gently expanding shoulders create symmetry of design so preferred by the jewelers of the late 1700s.

The stylized flower cluster balances the expressive shoulders using two faceted oval aquamarines with an estimated total of .50 carats. North and south the modified petals each display a series of five (5) brilliant cut diamonds linked by a vertical column of three (3) additional brilliant cut diamonds (for a total estimated diamond weight of .20 carats) with finials of an opal cut en cabochon. The shoulders and sides reflect the design elements associated with classical architectural. The petite setting is crafted of 10 carat yellow gold.
